YOU MAY FIND YOURSELF
You May Find Yourself is a podcast about guides, about mentoring, and about different pathways. Podcast host Robert O’Shaughnessy has a restless and meandering curiosity, one that brings adventure and the enticing whiff of possibility. In other words, Robert is a seeker, and this podcast is for the seekers. Robert is also an entrepreneur and a storyteller and, in this capacity, Robert speaks with people who are “good” with the eternal now.
YOU MIGHT BE A WRITER
Our podcast is focused on what writers--aspiring or otherwise--can learn from reading. We'll review popular books from a writerly perspective to glean helpful tips on how to make your own work better. In the words of the great Stephen King, "If you don't have time to read, you don't have the time (or the tools) to write. Simple as that." Join us, and together we'll hone our craft and have fun doing it.
YOU MIGHT KNOW HER FROM
Queer comedians Damian Bellino and Anne Rodeman are best friends who are devoted to actresses and each other. These pop culture savants chew the fat about what they’re so into and what they’re decidedly not. Each episode they lead a brilliant and sometimes idiotic conversation with a different actress, delving into the guest's life, work, and the hogwash that comes along with being overqualified and underutilized.
YOU NEVER MISS THE DOPAMINE (UNTIL THE BRAIN RUNS DRY)
He's quickly becoming the Lewis Black of Parkinson's Disease. In a series of hilarious essays, Bill Schmalfeldt (author of "No Doorway Wide Enough", also on Podiobooks) lashes out at Parkinson's Disease "and the other things that annoy me." Recorded at his kitchen table, you can hear life going on in the background as Bill talks about stupid studies that prove things that anyone with common sense should know ("Parkies who drool are embarrassed by it! It's SCIENCE!"), his own declining cognitive status ("Pills don't work... unless you TAKE them!"), the non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's ("I think the thing to do is take some daily Metamucil to make a poop that doesn't have to fight its way out every morning like the Incredible Hulk busting out of a police station."), why he had to quit drinking ("One of the pills I take said alcohol could cause the adverse side effect of death."), and a lot about the weird dreams that are caused by the disease and the medication he takes for the disease. Oh, and he's not much of a "Tea Party" fan, either. Bill cautions in the foreword of the book, if you find yourself LEARNING something or feeling sorry for him, put the book down immediately! That's not what he wrote it for. He wrote it to fight back against the disease and to give you something to laugh about. "PD can't affect the human spirit -- unless you let it! And who doesn't enjoy a funny book about disease?" "You Never Miss the Dopamine (until the brain runs dry)" is available in paperback, eBook and Kindle through his blog -- http://parkinsondiary.com -- and like his PREVIOUS books about Parkinson's, 100% of the author proceeds will be given to the National Parkinson Foundation and the Charles DBS Research Fund at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.
